Resit my leaving cert through home study programme

As the title suggests I am considering resitting my leaving cert in 2011.

I am wondering if it is possible to do this independently. What I mean is, me study away at home and come time for exams next year I register with a school to sit the exams with their students? Would I need to register now? Is it even possible for me to study independently? The reason why I want to study at home is because I intend on continuing to work as I can't afford to give up working and will obviously need a way of supporting myself.

Also, is anybody aware of any grants that would apply to this type of situation? I'm not looking for thousands of euro (and doubt I would get it) I'm just wondering if there would be a grant to help me with the purchase of books and other materials.

I have looked this up online but have only found sites linking to the normal leaving cert process.

Any help/advice as always greatly appreciated.
 
Sitting the leaving cert

I was wondering exactly the same thing, bit theres very little on the internet to help!!!
 
You just register with a school to sit the exam, pay the fees and just sit the exam.
 
yes, as Joe said - you can study independently & you then apply to do the exams, and contact a local school to see if you can sit the exams there

i think this is the site you need:

i dont think there are any grants unfortunately
